- In a clay pot over medium-low heat, heat some oil and cook the shallots until their edges are lightly golden. Add the garlic and keep stirring until completely golden brown.
- Add the celery, dried shrimp and mushroom slices, and stir for a few minutes until fragrant.
- Add 1 tsp salt, 1.5 tbsp soy sauce and 1.5 tbsp Taiwanese soy paste, and stir for 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in 1 liter of unsalted chicken broth with the soaking liquid. If using oyster sauce instead of soy paste, use that.
- Bring to a boil, add the chicken thighs, then lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken. Add the carrot and noodles to the pot.
- Shred the chicken with two forks into bite-sized pieces and return it to the pot with the garlic chives and bean sprouts. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, then taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Serve garnished with fried shallots and bonito flakes if you like.
